View amazing! Room very nice! Security great. Chair rental and umbrella rental annoying (We pay for the private beach access, but there are so many chairs set up to rent smack dab in front of the water you have to stand in the water to enjoy the beach).

Everything was great overall, it would just be much better if staff at receptionists would treat third party’s booking same way as if it was done through them.

Nice but overpriced.

The condo is cute for a couple, but was very small and it was way overpriced. $3000 was kind of steep for what we rented.

Not worth the money, but okay. Out dated appliances and also had glass table tops. Also the fact you pay to go to the beach but can’t have tent or e-z ups
